SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 15 /PRNewswire/ -- RSA Conference -- Lyris
Technologies today announced improved detection of phishing, fraud, and other
spam-borne threats by its MailShield product via an upgrade to the embedded
spam detection engine by Mailshell -- the OEM anti-spam leader and creator of
SpamCompiler technology.
Lyris' MailShield Server provides highly advanced, cost-efficient mail
filtering and tracking, and now includes Mailshell SpamCompiler version 3.2,
which optimizes, compiles and executes more than one million filter checks in
a fraction of a second. SpamCompiler technology combines a fast, compact,
flexible decision tree with an intelligent, self-tuning engine.
"Our MailShield customers include major, multi-national corporations with
high-volume messaging, so we needed a solution that could easily scale to
their needs," said Luis Rivera, General Manager of Lyris Technologies.
"Mailshell's SpamCompiler was the clear OEM frontrunner because it's extremely
sophisticated, yet also lightening-fast."
Lyris MailShield Server launched in 1998 and offers administrators a wide
choice of filters and rules to protect enterprise installations. MailShield
Server 4.0 is available with either a Standard feature set in Windows or
Solaris, or a Pro feature set for Windows. Each version incorporates
Mailshell's SpamCompiler technology. The Pro version offers an extra degree of
transparency by recording all SMTP transactions and providing a complete,
searchable audit trail of every incoming and outgoing message.
Mailshell's SpamCompiler SDK, the embedded engine in Lyris MailShield
Server, is the world's leading anti-spam engine licensed by over 20 US and
International OEMs and used by more than 5,000 enterprises and 10 million
consumers on over a dozen platforms. The SDK starts at 200k of code, can
handle more than two million messages a day, and can be embedded anywhere in
the email flow. Mailshell's OEM partners generate new anti-spam revenue,
upsell existing products to new anti-spam customers, and cut anti-spam
engineering and support costs to near zero.
